Maintenance Performance Analysis

Maintenance performance is generally hard to measure, as one should not only consider quantifiable parameters but also the quality of the performed maintenance and its organization. The aim of a maintenance quality audit is to get an idea about the performance of maintenance through the assessment of the existing problems, both from the organizational and operational point of view, so as to be able to suggest measures and set up a plan of action.

The maintenance quality audit contains the following four stages:

  1. the maintenance survey about the existing situation of the influencing parameters;
  2. the information analysis and the formulation of conclusions and recommendations;
  3. the definitions and setting of priorities and set up a plan of action;
  4. cost-benefict analysis to justify the proposed actions;

The first stages of quality audit require the selection and use of quantifiable economic and technical maintenance performance indicators. These indicators are ratios wich give the amaintenance manager the means of evaluating and monitoring the economic and thecnical performance of maintenance function.
